Sounds better the furthur you get from the speakers. Very muddy sound in general, although the piano stands out pretty well. That's at the beginning.Things improve very quickly, and I may be compelled to revise my review for at least part of this show (I commented on a different version of the recording). For the 1st set at least, a 5-star show rating is in order. Garcia falls apart a bit during High Time and also does some floundering in Let It Grow, but redeems himself long before the crescendo and brings it back home with gusto. Weir & Lesh are also playing particularly well, and the whole band is clicking together ragingly. By itself, the 1st set is a definite 5.

Things go a bit back downhill for the 2nd set, and now I see where I got my "good but not great" review of the other version. The first 2 songs are not played extraordinarily well--or even well enough, IMO--and Drums/Space is really the highlight of this set. Garcia seems to be having tone troubles: his guitar varies from buried in the mud to piercing your eardrums during Watchtower. Although Black Peter/Sugar Mag redeem it quite a bit, it's not a great set.
